Hello yellow fellow developers!!
I'm Puneet, a 15-year-old full-stack developer.
On my recent project named Crowdwide, I released its v2.
After that, I haven't posted anything publicly because I was busy with some of my stuff.
So, Crowdwide is a social media platform that has a special algorithm for giving users a better chance to grow compared to other social media platforms.
I've already discussed its feed and suggestion algorithms.
So... after v2, I got a suggestion from @unitbuilds that I should work on text typography, change the privacy policy links, and give them better names.
If I got the suggestion, then obviously I had to do something!
Hmm... I just did some simple things first, like changing that privacy policy text and using the correct format for it. Before, it was "Privacy Policy | Terms of Use".
Actually, both were different pages, but I forgot to add styling, and they were looking the same!
After that, I tried to work on typography and all those things. I didn't get much into that, like maybe I'm not able to understand it that deeply...
I tried to make some changes, and I made headings in posts get more space from the top.
Yea, simple adding of margin... IDK why I did this, but just to make them look more separate.
The text was congested, so I just moved it a little bit.
And added a very, very, very light gradient to the share post bar.
Huh!
That's it for now.
I haven't changed anything further.
And when I checked the stats of Crowdwide again, I saw that...
Approximately 24+ pages of Crowdwide are getting indexed on Google, and impressions are becoming more frequent for Crowdwide.
And according to members, Crowdwide got 2 intermediate communities also!
But lol, it's on 24 users and 84 posts. Even with this gap, I forgot what day it is!
Okay, that's all I've got in the project till now.
Further, if you have any more suggestions or find any bugs, just say it!

ok the communities popping up on their own is the real story here, way more than the Google impressions. 24 users and members already carving out their own spaces means people are sticking around. Did they start those themselves or did you seed them?
Yeah, most of the users I've got so far are from DEV.to. I just post my articles here, nothing special or targeted towards anyone specific. Everything has been pretty organic(99.999999999999999999999..9999%) so far, including the communities. I haven't seeded or pushed anyone to create them. They just happened on their own!
